It was a clear demonstration for them that the Ukrainian people are on their side and are connected to them,\u201d said Jim Hake, CEO of the charity organization \u201cSpirit of America\u201d, main sponsor of the Army FM radio. \u201cSpirit of America\u201d will keep supporting the radio station. \u201cSpirit of America is committed to continue to help Army FM and today I\u2019m very pleased to announce that we are launching a 200,000 dollar fundraising campaign to buy all the additional transmitters that are needed to expand the Army FM signal in the ATO zone and also in the west where soldiers are being trained,\u201d said Hake.<\/p>\n<p>Over the three month on the air military radio Army FM is broadcast in the four frontline cities: Kramatorsk, Bakhmut, Kostyantynivka and Pokrovsk. The radio is also being re-broadcast in Mykolayiv, Izyum and Kirovohrad as well as on the frontline positions in Avdiivka and Zaitseve. \u201cWe cannot measure the number of listeners in the FM-range but in the Internet through the \u201cSvoe radio\u201d platform we have had over 70 thousand connections since March 1 that made us the most popular Internet-radio in the Ukrainian segment,\u201d said Oleksiy Makukhin, Adviser to the Defense Minister at a press briefing at Ukraine Crisis Media Center. Army FM team numbers nine members six of whom are military and three civilians.<\/p>\n<p>The radio is broadcast 24\/7. Shows account for thirty percent of the content, 70 percent is music: rock, folk and pop-rock &#8211; the genres most popular with the military. \u201cFor the first time in Ukraine we used simultaneous broadcast process that enables the audience to move from one town to another and stay on the same frequency as well as get the signal of maximum quality,\u201d noted Lieutenant-Colonel Sergiy Telyatytsky, Head of radio programming unit at the Army FM.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur top on the air product is the \u2018Polygraph\u2019 program hosted by Andriy Kulykov. It is an uncensored program that encourages everyone to call and ask a question,\u201d said Lieutenant-Colonel Yana Kholodna, director of the military Central TV and Radio Studio. Each Friday the program \u201cSend hello to the ATO\u201d is on the air from 13.00 to 14.00. \u201cThe demand for feedback is very high. Not only the military themselves and their families but also residents of Kramatorsk and Bakhmut are calling us to express their support,\u201d noted Lieutenant-Colonel Kholodna.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WATCH IN ENGLISH Army FM radio station broadcasts for servicemen on the frontline and residents of the towns in ATO zone.
